I'm a huge admirer of Ameros Perrors, and also liked City of God and Motorcycle Diaries (which you incidentally liked).<br /><br />Great that you at least are honest in your standing as far as South American films goes, and I totally appreciate that. Anyway, I pretty much like South American film, and my disliking is not so much about specific regions but about some genres which I totally detest.<br /><br />But then, despite watching world cinema, we sure are allowed to be human sometime :)Shubhajithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040495040897333606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2017832040275963428.post-66181201857353888032010-12-29T15:35:58.963+05:302010-12-29T15:35:58.963+05:30I'm sure there are south american films I migh...I'm sure there are south american films I might like, I just haven't found them particularly appealing so far. <br />I also disliked Amores Perros, City of God. Like Water for Chocolate did nothing for me despite the praise. <br /><br />I can think of 2 from that region I enjoyed, Motorcycle diaries and House of the spirits. And Central Station had a few good scenes. But none of them are my favourites.<br /><br />I respect all people in the world, I just don’t feel I am compatible with the south american films, and hence don't seek them out too often. I guess you can't like everything. Does that make sense?

Anyway, as for this movie, yeah, we happen to lie on contrasting sides. As my review said, I loved this film, and really hope that you give this movie another try... often a second viewing changes one's opinion of a film :)Shubhajithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040495040897333606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2017832040275963428.post-61928032423072590372010-12-29T00:49:54.286+05:302010-12-29T00:49:54.286+05:30I didn’t like it as much as I thought I would.

The ending was ambiguous, and the visuals nice enough, but I thought the rest of the story was fairly dull(and overlong) So, I think we disagree on this occasion. Maybe south american cinema is just not my cup of tea, who knows. Some cultures appeal to me more than others on film.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09395044055566348346noreply@blogger.com
